Suitably secured upon the inner faces of the sides 3 of the cabinet or case, by means of screws 6, or other suitable fastening devices, are cleats, as 7, and slidably arranged upon said cleats, so as to be capable of rcmoval from within the cabinet or case, is a metal plate 8 which provides both a shelf, and also a base-plate, upon which the greater portion of the mechanism of the recordingmdicator is arranged in the manner and for the purposes to be [resently more fully set forth. The said she f or base-plate 8 is referably of the configuration shown in i 2 of the drawings, being provided with a orwardly extending part, as 9. Suitably meant-"d, upon said ba se. late, and upon said part 9 thereof, is the tame-work 10 of any suitably constructed clock-work 11, of which thereference'character 12 indicates the usual geared or toothed-disks provided with the boxes 13 and winding-arbors 14, the usual operating springs being arranged within said boxes 13 and being connected with said arbors 14, in-any usual and wellknown manner.

The clock-work of mechanism is provided with a spindle 15 which is driven from said toothed disks 12 by means of intermediately disposed gears, in the manner usual with the construction of clock-work, saihl spindle 15 having suitably mounted and sec red thereon a diskor wheel 16,which shall be hereinafter termed the contact-making and breakin disk, and which is provided with periphera serrations or teeth,.as 17, for making and breaking electrical contact at predetermined intervals with a spring-contact or arm 18 formed at one of its free ends with a contact-making element or member 19. This spring-contact or arm 18 is fixed to a standard or post 20, which is secured to the part 9 of said shelf or base-plate .8 by means of a screw 21, or other suitable fastenin means, said post as well as said screw 21 being suitably insulated from the said shelf or baseplate 8 by meansofdevices or washers, as'

22 and 23 which arehrade of fiber, or other suitable insulating material. The normal initial position of the spring-contact or arm 18 is that shown more particularly in 'Fi g. 8 of the drawings, and the'spa ce 24 between disk oi wheel 16 is such, that the contactmakin element 19 will enter the said space 24 wit out touching any portions of said teeth or the disk, as shown in said Fig. 8, but will intermittently engage with the said teeth, so as to establish electrical contact, as

indicated in Fig. 9 of the drawin "s, when the disk or wheel 16 is moved .in t e direction of the arrows shown in connection with said Figs. 8 and 9. Suitably secured upon the lower face of said shelf or baseplate 8, by means of screws 25, or other suitable fastening means, and more clearly illustrated in Fig. 5 of the drawings, is a U-shapcd frame 26. Suitably mounted upon said frame 26 is a magnetic bar or plate 27, from which extend, upwardly, a pair of x'nagnetic cores 28 of a pair of energizing coils 29, one of said coils being connected by means of the wire 29 to a screw .28 by means of which said core 28 is secured in place. These wire-wound coils are connected in circuit by means of a wire 30, another wire 31 leading from one "of said coils, to the binding-post 33 of abatte as 32, which is usually placed upon the ottom or base 2 of the cabinet or case 1. A circuit-wire is attached to the other binding-post 35 of said battery, said wire 34 leading to and being attached to the previously mentioned screw 21, by means of which the standard or post 20 is secured in place. It will thus be cvident, that every time the element or member 19 is brought in slidable engagement with a tooth or serration 17 of said disk or wheel 16 an electric circuit is established, whereby the coils 529 are energized and the cores 28 become magnetic. Suitably secured upon the upper face of said shelf or base or in any each post 36 being formed atits upper free end with a hook-shaped end-portion 37, or other suitably formed attaching means. Suitably attached to each hook-shaped end-' portion 37 is a coiled spring 38, said springs extendin' downwardly and having their lower enfi portions permanently secured to downwardly extending rods or arms .40 of a F l-shaped frame 39. The said rods or arms 40 extend into and through corre spondingly located holes or erforations 41 in the shelf or base-plate 8, t eend-portions of said rods or arms 40 which roject beneath the lower face of said she f or basemeans of nuts 42 and 43,01 in any t er manner, a cross-bar orplate 44. Sui a ly secured to the lower face of said bar or plate 44 is an armature 45which is attracted by the cores 28, when the latter are rendered magnetic, so as to distend the coils of the springs 38, and at the same time move the l l-shaped frame 39 in a downward direction, as will be clearly evident. As soon as the electrical circuit is interrupted, the springs 38 will assume their normal initi-al positions, whereby the said frame 39, and the parts carried by said frame will again move upx-vardly into their normal positions, indicated in said Fig. 5 of the drawings.

Referring now to Figs. 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the drawings, it. will be seen, that there is plate 8 having suitably secured theretp, by

' or mark thereon, and where it is held until i recordsheet,

l5,s1eeves 101.

0 or arm This arm 98, which is preferably bent in the manner shown in Fig. 4 of the drawings, extends forwardly and directly beneath the previously mentioned I-shaped frame 39, the free end-portion of the arm 98 terminating in a holder 99 for the pencil, said holder being located directly above the arcshaped supporting plate or table 58, for marking by means oi? said pencil upon the as it n'io'ves over said plate or table 58. The various portions which are mounted upon the spindle 91. are suitably insulated .from each other by means of insulating A plate or bar 100 is also secured upon the upper arm 83 of the standa'ard 82, by means of the previously-mentioned screw-threaded. plug 86, and extending downwardly from said plate or-bar 100 is a stem 102, of suitable insulating material,

and with which the outer end-portions 01" said torsional springs 95 and 96 are suitably connected.

Connected with and extending from a portion of the spring 95 isa suitably covered or insulated circuit-wirc.103,a portion of which is Wound around one of the said carriers or arms 93, and is connected. with the-energizing coil 94: suspended from said carrier 98. The said energizing coil is placed in circuit with the other energizing coil by means of a connecting circuit-wire 10 1, and said last-mentioned coil is connect ed by means of acircu'it-wire 105 with the other spring 96, said wire 105 being wound around the other carrier or arm 93 and be ing secured at its end to the said sprlng 96. Leading-out circuit wires 100 and 107 are respectively secured to the portions of the 40 springs 95 and 96 which are secured to the gstem 102', said leading-out wires 106 and 107 being passed either through the back or a side of the cabinet or casing, as will be clearly understood, but not shown in the present drawings, and being placed in circuit with any suitable source of electrical resistance, as a thermo-electric couple.

The operationof the electrical heat-measuring device, just. described, is self-evident,

ments of the stylus; and, the electrical 'make and break device which intermittently produces the downward movements of said -sheped frame 39, causes said frame to engage the stylus so that the latter, at the predetermined intervals, will be pressed downwardly whereby the pencil of the stylus, no matter in whatever position the stylus .may have been moved, is forced against the record-sheet to produce a point the springs 88 are freed to return the frame 89 once more in its upward direction-{and another position, in which it can again be the purpose being to produce swinging moveframe, 'said frame bein whereby the stylus again is free-to swing to depressed and held to produce another point or marking upon. the record-sheet.

In lieuof the electro-magncts 29 and their cores 28, the frame 26, the movable frame 39 thesprings 38, and the armature carried by said frame 39, a core 1081nay be secured upon the upper face of the shell 8, the said core 108 being surrounded by a wire-wound coil 109 which is placed in circuit with the battery, in the manner previously described. The core 108 whichextends above the coil 109'is provided upon its projecting end with an arc-shaped plate 110, and the arm 98 of the stylus has sutably secured thereon a disk or other suitably shaped armature, as 111, which is attracted by the said arc-shaped plate 110, when the core 108 and said plate 110 are rendered magnetic, as will be clearly understood'from an inspection of the modification shown in F 10 and 11 of the drawings, and for the purposes set forth in the foregoing description.

The remaining parts of the apparatus are the same as those described in connection with Figs. 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 8 and 9 of the drawings, and need, therefore, not be further described.

I am aware that some changes may be made in the arrangements and combinations of :the various devices and parts, as well as in the details e the construction of the same, withoutdeparcg from the scope of the present invention as described in the forego' ing specification, and as defiped in the claims which are appended thereto.
